Embodiments are directed to authenticating a user to a remote application provisioning service. In one scenario, a client computer system receives authentication credentials from a user at to authenticate the user to a remote application provisioning service that provides virtual machine-hosted remote applications. The client computer system sends the received authentication credentials to an authentication service, which is configured to generate an encrypted token based on the received authentication credentials. The client computer system then receives the generated encrypted token from the authentication service, stores the received encrypted token and the received authentication credentials in a data store, and sends the encrypted token to the remote application provisioning service. The encrypted token indicates to the remote application provisioning service that the user is a valid user.

User authentication in a cloud environment

Exemplary techniques for enabling single sign-on to an operating system configured to conduct a remote presentation session are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, a user credential can be encrypted using an encryption key generated by a remote presentation session server and sent to a client. The client can send the encrypted user credential to the remote presentation session server. The remote presentation session server can decrypt the user credential and use it to log a user into an operating system running on the remote presentation session server. In addition to the foregoing, other techniques are described in the claims, the detailed description, and the figures.
